I seem to have been removed from my linkshell's list. I can't fix it from my member's menu either, the option isn't even there now.

?

We're moving to a system where linkshell members are not self-reported. (Caused too many problems with people complaining to us about users adding themselves to linkshells they weren't in, or had been removed from.)

We're going to start only automatically adding members to linkshells based off the POL LS Comm site data. System's still in development so there might be a few hiccups here and there, even for linkshells you do belong to. I'll post more once we have more info.

Havok, what is your exact linkshell name? and what name did you use on ffxiah? I only removed names that contained a space.

I noticed this change yesterday. Would it be possible to leave a way to prioritize the order or at least set a primary linkshell? My profile lists a linkshell I'd forgotten I even had first whereas I'd prefer my social linkshell be the most prominent.

Noticed that I got dropped from my LS listing sometime recently as well. Are you guys tweaking the LS system atm?

Yeah, it's mid-tweak. Apologies for any wonkiness in the meantime.

We're trying to make our linkshell system more reliable and trustworthy on our end. Meaning we're moving towards pulling linkshell membership info from the LS Comm official site, rather than having members self-report which linkshells they're in.

It makes our profile pages more reliable, and also prevents the hard-to-verify wackiness of what happens when we get a message saying "I'm the leader of SoAndSo Linkshell, and this guy on your site is so not a member, please remove him." Then the other guy says "Actually, I'm the leader of SoAndSo, and you need to remove the other guy." Etc.

You may notice some linkshell records appearing and disappearing while we tweak stuff.
